Personally i think it'll be a good car...but only for the right person, most likely someone in the auto trade that has access to parts and their own workshop, or beg borrow steal favours from known painters welders at mates rates etc, at 8k for that and say an "in the trade" person spent 5k on rebuilding i think you could have a better spec'd escos than some of the ones out there floating around the 12-14k sale price
